16.04.2026 Meshtastic is a decentralized wireless off-grid mesh networking LoRa protocol. The main goal of the project is enabling low-power, long-range communication over ISM radio bands. It transmits at power levels which do not require a license to use. It is designed around exchanging text messages and data in off-grid environments, with potential applications in IoT projects where a decentralized communication system is needed without existing infrastructure.

An Israeli organisation has been caught on camera offering to help British citizens move to an illegal settlement in the West Bank. Declassified can reveal how the group, Shivat Zion, told supporters it could benefit from UK tax subsidies - despite staff bragging about "awesome" settlements. An undercover investigation saw the group's "encouragement" officer discussing the support it would give settlers moving to Efrat, in the West Bank.
Some kiss of death from Donald Trump and the gang, wasn't it? Despite pleas from right-wing figures across the world, Hungarian voters have decisively ousted Viktor Orban, bringing an end to the autocratic leader's 16-year premiership.
Even his most loyal MAGA cult members are starting to turn on him. He's fucked, and it's going to be so enjoyable watching his demise. Pass me the popcorn!
There is no more room left to mince words in the name of political correctness or anything else, for that matter. Israel has become a menace of downright international proportions, and the world must come together to confront and destroy it without conditions. Part of this proclamation has always been true. Israel has always been a menace, a hyper-colonialist killing machine founded on the principles of racial supremacy. It is only the international part of my opening statement that I might have rolled my eyes at until relatively recently.
Rania Khalek speaks with Vijay Prashad and Zoe Alexandra after escaping Beirut, recounting a "horrendously terrifying" day as Israeli airstrikes leveled residential buildings without warning, overwhelming hospitals and leaving scores dead and injured. She describes indiscriminate destruction across densely populated neighborhoods, challenging claims that the attacks targeted militants and warning that "nowhere is safe" in Lebanon. Khalek also warns this escalation could expand regionally, arguing that what's being done to Lebanon today could soon be repeated against Iran - with U.S. backing.

As AI becomes more powerful, so do the attacks.
The whole world has to isolate this rogue, apartied, pathologically lying state. Isolate it. Shame anyone who goes there: academics, celebrities, politicians. They've been exposed for what they are. We're seeing essentially the 4th Reich today.

From building jet engines as a teenager to his work as a physicist at Los Alamos National Labs, Bob Lazar's life has always been rooted in the pursuit of science. In 1988, he was hired to work at a classified facility known as S4, a site hidden within the perimeter of Area 51. There, he and 22 other scientists were tasked with reverse-engineering extraterrestrial technology. S4: The Bob Lazar Story is the definitive visual record of these events. Narrated by Lazar himself, the film brings his story to life through highly realistic and accurate recreations of exactly what he witnessed inside the S4 facility.

Since Israel and the United States launched their unprovoked war against Iran, thousands of Westerners in the Gulf states have been scrambling for the exits. In their haste to abandon the glittering towers of the desert, many have also abandoned the animals in their care. Thousands of cats and dogs have been left in locked apartments or tied to lampposts. And veterinarians have reported an uptick in requests for euthanasia.
The world simply wasn't ready for AI powered tractors.
We visited RAF Fairford and Welford on Tuesday to investigate how Donald Trump is using these bases to bomb Iran. At Welford, near Swindon, anti-war activist Peter Burt showed us a sprawling network of bunkers and earth works specially designed to store 2,000lb bombs. These are then taken by lorry to RAF Fairford on the other side of Swindon to be loaded onto American B-1 and B-52 war planes bound for Iran. Despite being in the English countryside, the military bases at Welford and Fairford are both operated by the US.
Donald Trump has no idea how to fix the mess he has made with his attack on Iran, and now it seems he may not even try and may instead dump the challenge of re-opening the Strait of Hormuz on them. At the same time, several European allies are not allowing the U.S. to use their facilities or even cross their airspace in connection with Trump's war. Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling (ret.), former commanding general of the U.S. Army, Europe, and Michael McFaul, former U.S. ambassador to Russia discuss.
Watch as Donald Trump's reckless Iran escalation unravels in real time, with Fox News figures like Laura Ingraham struggling to defend the indefensible as threats to strike critical infrastructure and deploy troops expose a dangerous mix of arrogance, confusion, and catastrophic miscalculation. Jayar Jackson breaks it down.

An estimated 1.6 billion people rely on VPNs to carry out the most sensitive tasks online, from watching illegal videos to engaging in sexual or political activities. But few people know that a considerable chunk of that market - including three of the six most popular VPNs - is quietly operated by an Israeli-owned company with close connections to that country's national security state, including the elite Unit 8200 and Duvdevan Units of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).
Rania Khalek reports from Beirut, where Israel is pursuing an open campaign of ethnic cleansing. She explains Israel's systematic destruction of Lebanese infrastructure and its chilling "Gaza model" for the South.
When and how the system of ethnic supremacy in the Eastern Mediterranean comes to an end is impossible to forsee, but end it will. And when it does, the Israelis - and those who have indulged them for so long - may well rue the fact they never learnt to live as neighbours rather than overlords. |
